the optimize and commit commands don't specify any mail user in them: # Optimize should be run somewhat rarely, e.g. once a day curl https://<hostname/ip>:<port|default 8983>/solr/dovecot/update?optimize=true # Commit should be run pretty often, e.g. every minute curl https://<hostname/ip>:<port|default 8983>/solr/dovecot/update?commit=true It doesn't actually matter which cron user you run them under so long as that user can execute the commands successfully. The idea (if you need them) is to run them globally under a single user. If you schedule them under more than one cron user it is just running the same commands more times, not doing anything specific per user.
